Corb Lund Joins the Cavalry

Corb Lund's new album, Horse Soldier! Horse Soldier!, dropped earlier this week. The entire project was tracked here at the studio. What's especially cool listening to these songs is the authentic atmosphere they have. It's usually very difficult to hear the details of the room that a particular instrument is recorded in. By the time a project gets through the mastering process countless EQ tweeks, compression, and added reverb have dramatically altered the perceptive "size" of the room in which the recording was made. This recording is so stripped down, clear and concise that I can almost count how many floorboards there are in the drum just by listening to these tracks.

Actually, no, I totally can't do that. There are 63 rows of floorboards in our drum room. I had to count them by hand.

Here's a link to the video for 'I Wanna Be In The Cavalry', which is the first single off the album.
